Brian, any chance of showing us a sneak peek of the traycase for the Artist Edition?

Sure, if someone reminds me on Monday when I'm at the office, I can snap a couple of quick pics!

Brian

Reminding! :D

Pretty!!!

Thank you!

[richardsrarebooks]

Just got my notice. It's "Carrie" the signed artist edition. So far it's "Carrie" and "Salem's Lot". Wonder if there are any others?

[MLG]

I am getting Carrie as part of the Grab Bag. It will be a duplicate as I have the full set ordered. Still happy with the Grab Bag!

[Lurker]

I'm getting Salem's Lot. Which is great - but...can I get my matching number to Carrie?

[Aronstg]

I'm getting Salem's Lot. Which is great - but...can I get my matching number to Carrie?

Good question. I would assume so because they say in the email that they are telling you so that you don't double order it. Maybe Brian can confirm this though.

[Brian James Freeman]

I'm getting Salem's Lot. Which is great - but...can I get my matching number to Carrie?

Yep!

Brian

[Jimimck]

That artist edition case for Carrie looks pretty sweet!

Hi Brian,

Does any of the slipcases sold on CD's site fits the Justin Cronin's S/L The Twelve?. Thanks.

That's definitely a Dan question. I'll ask him when I see him later today, and if there are, I'm sure he can pop in and post a note. Thanks for asking!

Do you think CD might produce a slipcase for The Twelve specifically?.

[webstar1000]

Although I agree with what everyone is saying about the case for Carrie. I, honestly, expected this to be the exact case. Color and foil stamping... nothing else. I am not shocked or wow because I know the CD does a crazy good job. I was hoping for something a little different but this is classy and I am happy with it. Carrie is one of the books you can't do to much with anyway. It should be classy.... I am most excited for the Stand or Salems...

i'm kidding, of course. I like the looks of the case.

[Brian James Freeman]

Do you think CD might produce a slipcase for The Twelve specifically?.

We did a poll of the collectors who ordered from us over the summer, basically, "Would you be interested in one if one were to be produced?"

Based on the responses, assuming that everyone actually ordered a case who said they did want one, the per unit cost for production worked out to north of $35 if I recall. Given that a lot of the responses were, "if it's not too expensive," we assumed that many of the people wouldn't actually order at that price, which would push the per unit cost even higher, which would probably knock out even more interested collectors, etc.

But we have more projects with slipcases in the works for 2015, so we'll be watching to see if any of them might fit. We can easily add 100 extra cases to a run of a new case and offer them very affordably!

In addition to what Brian said it is important to note that The Passage didn't have a specific slipcase produced for it either. It just so happened that at the time we had a large number of the Dark Tower Concordance slipcases left over, which happened to fit The Passage pretty much perfectly.

Hi Brian,

Has Faithful come out yet? I thought it was going to come out in October or November. If it's out I didn't get mine. Is there no Faithful thread?!?

Why has the name of the non-Fiction book that Stephen King coauthored in 2004 about the greatest comeback in sports history (Hint: Boston Red Sox) been censored? Yankee fans are rewriting history now?

I only have The Twelve, so can't compare, but are The Passage and The Twelve the same size? Would they fit the same slipcase? It would be cool if so and Brian's suggestion of ordering an extra 100 of an up and coming plain case was arranged so we could grab matching cases for both books.

[Lurker]

The Passage is wider. I don't know if I posted before but the slipcase for The Very Best of Best New Horror is a pretty good fit and seems to be made of the same material as the Dark Tower Concordance one. They look like matching cases to me. It was $25.00. I just e-mailed Paul and asked him if he had any extras.

You can see the spine in this pic.

http://cemeterydance.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/king093Dlarge.jpg

I think what will tie the series together is the color of the book cases. The original DD Carrie had a red/maroon color and so does the AE traycase as well as the title on the GE slipcase. I can see all the GE's having black cases with only the title color matching the traycase. Maybe Shining will have a green color. Night Shift a cream color. The Stand an orange-ish color. Pet Sematary a brown-ish color. Not sure about 'Salem's Lot since it's mostly black and you can't have a black title on a black case and see it very well.

This was mentioned before but I'd love to see full size reproductions of the original DD covers inside the front of these books.

[Randall Flagg]

I think stroppygoblin said/meant the spine of the "CASE", not the book.

[skyofcrack]

I think stroppygoblin said/meant the spine of the "CASE", not the book.

Ah, yes. Whether or not the case spines have a number like Doubleday Years #1-6, I like the idea of matching the original book colors in a subtle way. :)

I need some help gathering SK cover artwork for Stephen King Revisited. A lot of the covers can be found on the web at the larger size I need, but some of the early ones only seem to be available in smaller sizes.

So if there is anyone on here who has:

1) the free time to do some Googling for the SK original hardcover covers that are available on the web at the appropriate size

2) a collection of SK's books featuring the original US cover artwork (meaning: you don't have to have 1st printing or anything close to that, you just need to have an edition that uses the same FRONT COVER as the 1st printing) for the ones that can't be found online

3) a scanner

4) and who wants a good amount of CD store credit for helping

Please drop me a line via email:

brianfreeman@cemeterydance.com

Thanks!

Brian

I am more than happy to help you, Brian! :thumbsup:

Brian,

My apologies if you have already answered this, but will the Gift state of your CARRIE be numbered?

[Brian James Freeman]

Brian,

My apologies if you have already answered this, but will the Gift state of your CARRIE be numbered?

Great question! They are not hand-numbered, but for the first time on any Gift Edition we've published, there IS a limitation page at the front of the book stating the print run, etc. We thought that might be helpful for new collectors down the road, etc.

Since this was a CD publication, thought I'd post it here. This seller has 18 copies of The Twelve S/L at $85 BIN + $14 Fed-Ex shipping stateside or $38 International Priority; numbers available are: 102, 104, 106, 110, 111, 112, 115, 127, 128, 130, 132, 133, 136, 138, 149, 171, 173 & 175. Issue price was $75 + shipping, so this is a good opportunity to pick one up at just barely over issue price with a good choice of numbers if you're interested.

You actually just got lucky. I remembered you saying yours was coming with a WWZ and I didn't see any with a WWZ when I printed the orders so I found it and printed it separately so it ended up in the pile of people we managed to ship on Friday.

I haven't had a shipping notice yet (we have both the Gift and Artist editions on order). "25%" per the number I saw in Brian's email so not at all worried; still, looking forward to have these in hand!

Just guessing here but I'm thinking the GE only orders probably ship out first then GE and AE ship next (waiting on traycases), then the orders with remarques.

You think there will be any King items in this one?

The email said "and this one will have a little something for EVERYONE" so I'd say yes.

Although it is to clear out the shelves so there will be a bunch of other stuff too.

I like it!

I've had grab bags from other publishers that I was unimpressed with. I've never had a CD grab bag that I didn't like.

[2929]

You think there will be any King items in this one?

Hoping that some of the treats that were in the last Grab Bags make it into this one... maybe they have a few of those King proofs left over?

[zelig]

Yeah. I got the last GB and it was great. I'm not sure whether there's anything new for this one though. Guess you just have to take a chance. I'm sure it won't be disappointing.

Just wondering how much of the CARRIE Gift Edition have been shipped? I didn't get any notice yet, but I've seen a french fan saying that he recieved his copy...

I'm pretty much through the UPS and International orders and onto the USPS domestic orders. The only exception would be if you ordered after we started shipping the pre-orders, those will ship after we ship all of the pre-orders. Things are going to slow down a bit here though as our Holiday help is pretty much gone at this point so the speed of shipping has been pretty much halved. If your's is an international order for a single gift edition shoot me an email and I can check on it for you.

[Brian James Freeman]

Thanks for the info Brian. I was wondering what the timeframe is on the Lettered edition? I didn't see it mentioned on the production updates page of the CD site.

We're making a style of case that we've never used before for any project, so I'm not entirely sure of the production schedule. Our case maker is closed for the holidays for another 10 days or so, but I'll ask them about the schedule once they're back. (They couldn't start before the holidays because these Lettered Editions are hand-bound and they needed a finished copy for sizing.) I'll probably wait to post any kind of date until they officially start rolling, just to be safe, but I will post something as soon as they give me a reasonably solid date. I just don't want to say "April" and have that turn out to be wrong.

Brian

Looks like your list is only missing a few.

There was a traycase for Full Dark, No Stars and 11/22/63. Also there was a slipcase for The Wind Through The Keyhole.

[sentinel]

Dan,
How many orders does it take to make it worth producing a slipcase?
For example, I'd love to have one for Pet Semetery, Dead Zone, Christine etc... ultimately it would be nice to have
one for all King books but does that take a 100 orders, a 1000?? What's it worth to do it?
thanks!

400 units is pretty much the minimum run for our vendors to have the price be reasonable.

[stroppygoblin]

To give folks an idea of cost, Jeff can get a plate made to pretty much any specification. Cost of the plate is directly related to the size. Anywhere between £8 and £40. Charge for slipcase averages around £13.

Obviously the cost of the plate is a one off as it can be used again and again. A separate plate is required if the spine is to be embossed as well.
Costs could be kept down by having the slipcases just embossed on the spine or just have a generic 'Stephen King' on the front (this plate is already made and would incur no additional cost)
Personally I would like to have each one specific to the book, if we got 10 people to split the plate cost it becomes very reasonable (.80p to £4 each, depending on size)

Dan,
How many orders does it take to make it worth producing a slipcase?
For example, I'd love to have one for Pet Semetery, Dead Zone, Christine etc... ultimately it would be nice to have
one for all King books but does that take a 100 orders, a 1000?? What's it worth to do it?
thanks!

400 units is pretty much the minimum run for our vendors to have the price be reasonable.

Brian

Thanks Brian. Is that something you all would entertain if you had enough orders?

[sentinel]

To give folks an idea of cost, Jeff can get a plate made to pretty much any specification. Cost of the plate is directly related to the size. Anywhere between £8 and £40. Charge for slipcase averages around £13.

Wouldn't shipping to the US kill any reasonable price?

Not really. I order a ton of the cases from him. Not bad at all when it comes to shipping:)

[DanHocker]

Looks like your list is only missing a few.

There was a traycase for Full Dark, No Stars and 11/22/63. Also there was a slipcase for The Wind Through The Keyhole.

Thanks Dan! Appreciate the feedback. I'll add those to the list. Are there any pictures of these missing ones still online?

It's not the greatest shot of the traycase, as I just snapped a real quick picture with my phone, but here's one none the less.

Those prices are awesome. Where does he get the plates made at such a low cost? Those plate costs are amazing.

Over seas... it amazes me Brian the costs there VS here for printing and all that goes long with it. I have a print company and am shocked by some of the pricing I hear of. Poland, Netherlands are just two that jump to mind for CHEAP pricing on that kind of stuff.

Does Jeff Whiley have a website? I tried looking him up and didn't see anything.
I am not familiar with him.

no website - you can contact him by email (jeffrey.whiley@ntlworld.com)

[bdwyer19]

A lot of Jeff's work seems to be word-of-mouth. There are several here (myself included) who have had slipcases made by him. The overall quality is very good.

[zelig]

Yes that is certainly the case. The quality is very good. I had some done recently and just ordered more.

[webstar1000]

No complaints here. He does good work and customer service is bang on.

count me in!
I'm would like to have slipcases (or traycases) for all my books :)
If you are planning to make an order for some... please count me in...

Maybe this should go to a separate thread?

[zelig]

I agree, as we're sort of hijacking the CD thread. I created one here (http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/showthread.php?18900-Aftermarket-Slipcases-amp-Traycases) for aftermarket slipcases in general. We can move the discussion there.

Received the Carrie gift edition today. WELL DONE! It is a very beautiful book. Wonder when the artist editions will ship!!!???

[Kingfan24]

I JUST WANT A SHIPPING NOTICE!!! lol

[Jimimck]

I'll trade you my shipping notice for an Artist edition?

Soonish. I still have roughly 3 - 4 days of shipping gift editions left at our current level of help from holiday helpers. Maybe less, maybe more all depending on the whims of our part time help, and I may be over exagerating a bit as I don't know the exact numbers of how many are left to ship, just a rough estimate.

[frik]

But some here already received their AE??!!

sk

[Brian James Freeman]

But some here already received their AE??!!

sk

A few AE orders printed with the Gift Edition orders when we processed UPS shipments, I believe.

Brian

[ICry4Oy]

Cool & thanks! After getting the gift I can't wait to get the AE!!!

[webstar1000]

I got mine a week ago. LOL Sorry I never thought i should say something!

[DanHocker]

sk

Brian

Yep. It was just easier to ship them at the time than put the orders on hold until we got through the gift editions to the artist edition orders. It was many, just a few lucky people.

[Dano]

I wasn't one of the lucky, but still eager to receive mine!

Dan

[DanHocker]

Actually I have a slightly more accurate estimate now. We'll probably start in on the artist editions on Monday.

[Ben Mears]

[Anubis2347]

Have all of the Carrie gift editions shipped?

[Dan]

Have all of the Carrie gift editions shipped?

I literally received my shipping notice for the Gift and Artist Editions moments before you asked this question. So, hang tight. I was a little worried too.

[Kingfan24]

Nope because I still haven't received a shipping notice.

[burial]

I've just received a shipping notice... for my artist edition :)

[jonp]

I received a shipping notice for my Artist but not my Gift.

[richardsrarebooks]

Received the gift edition today with no shipping notice. Beautiful book!

[Dano]

No shipping notice for my Artist yet...

Dan

[zelig]

No shipping notice for my Artist yet...

Dan

Same here. Will probably show up in the next few days... I'm eagerly awaiting the lettered edition...

[DanHocker]

If your gift edition is shipping with an artist edition, probably not. Also if you ordered your gift edition after we started shipping the preorders, probably not. Otherwise the answer is yes. We started the artist editions on Friday last week, I expect we'll finish those this week, hard to say though.

[Kingfan24]

I ordered both editions the day they were announced. Will they be shipping together?

[Brian James Freeman]

I ordered both editions the day they were announced. Will they be shipping together?

Dan will let you know!

I do know the remarqued copies will be the last to be assembled and shipped if that helps anyone.

Brian

[frik]

My remarqued edition was shipped a couple of days ago!

sk

[DanHocker]

Assuming you ordered them on the same order, they will be.

[DanHocker]

My remarqued edition was shipped a couple of days ago!

sk

Are you sure about that? I haven't actually processed the remarqued editions into inventory yet, so none of those orders should have been filled. We've been holding those for last just to minimize the chances of accidentally sending someone the wrong book.

[zelig]

Just got the grab bag order shipping notice.

[richardsrarebooks]

No grab bag shipping notice but did get a notice for the gift edition of Carrie.....which I received yesterday!

[racerx45]

Just got the grab bag order shipping notice.

Which grab bag? I received my notice for Carrie AE from the SK grab bag but I have two others grab bags I have not received anything on yet.

[zelig]

Just got the grab bag order shipping notice.

Which grab bag? I received my notice for Carrie AE from the SK grab bag but I have two others grab bags I have not received anything on yet.

I can only assume it's from that latest "sold out" one that was announced because I'm pretty sure the original grab bag orders are all complete and shipped. I have no idea what's in there, and I could be wrong...

[mattgreenbean]

Got my gift edition, looks great. The paper stock is great. The book feels comfortable.

Probably not that one. With us still working on Carrie we haven't had the space or time to put together the "sold out" grab bag.
